Stemming from the post "Msgbox in Excel"... Thanks to those who posted I
have finally managed to show my userform in Excel. Been wanting to do that
for a loong time now. Many thanks to you guys.
But I promptly ran into another issue: Is it not possible for AutoCAD to
wait for a modeless Excel userform to close before continuing?
I tried using an Excel function that returns a value, and setting an
arbitrary variable in the ACAD module to ExclApp.run...etc. thinking then it
would have to wait. But no, it blazed right on through and the Excel
function even returned it's value without me ever having a chance to touch
the modeless userform.
Basically, I want ACAD to pass focus to Excel, where I can do my work and
have a button to explicitly tell ACAD when I am done working, so that the
ACAD macro knows when it can finish. I have had this very thing for a while
now and it works great, except that my "gotoacad" button shows in ACAD, not
Excel. Am I going about this all wrong?
